Don’t remember any ac. And the mistaken roll was a sorry situation.
Well, all in all a very well played game on your part. Would love to try it again. I’m not so sure of the validity of the all-out Chinese support, but perhaps I just lack rational insight.
Well, i do not know too, but it worked in this game and i did not know U are an Elite player, with 5-1 win loss rating, so it was tested on a very strong opponent. But the thing is there was an element of surprise on my part which i would not have on any future battle with me as the allies against u

Just before that battle where i scored 5/5 and we nullified it.

Oh, I didn’t see that. Sorry. Would’ve contemplated it atleast.
I said i wont changes so dont worry. My bad. I have to play more patiently.
-
Me too.
It definitely worked! I underestimated the power of that opening and didn’t respond accordingly. Played in a standard way, trying to control all of China, which dispersed power too much.
-
Think I’m tier 1 now and with a 5/5 win ratio.

And the Korea move confused U.
I personally think I am not a bad player, but that U are better, but in this game I think the element of surprise whas much more on my part.
In some parts of the game i felt like chess player playing against a powerful PC. Xd

U play so many games at the same time so maybe that affects the results. I am, sure U ll be a, high 1, or come back to E again
-
And I think that my constant attacks against U when i had 30, 40 or 50 % odds confused U too. I ve combined attacks with allies, made some sacrificies, but disrupted Ur plans.
And economy was working for me so I could afford it
-
The thing that confused me is your mechanized german stack. Ok U ve threatened India, Egypt, Russia, even China, U took some middle east money. But why havent U attacked Russia? Or India? Or Egypt? Especially Russia, U could taken IMHO
-
Thanks for reassuring. At the moment I feel like a degenerate clown. Mainly for atleast three other games that I’ve lost or will lose, where I’ve made really silly, stupid blunders.
Yes, I also play too impatiently. I also play so many games at the same time since it’s nerve cracking to wait for moves. It’s a bad strategy. It does confuse things at times. I make a move and somehow mix things up with other games.
There’s also a strain on a personal level, but I won’t go into that here.
I also feel your win was well-deserved. I would’ve continued if I had taken Hawaii and then been able to secure it. I would just skip over China and leave it almost forever. That’s actually interesting that China can very well have over 500 units and it doesn’t matter so much. A bit of income loss for Japan and two VCs, but not crucial.
-
Yes, I should’ve pressed harder on Russia.
-
Well I wouldnt (totally) agreed to that. Ok i dont know what would happened if U quited China earlier,
But China is very important (for Japan) because its a 20+ ipc, and for japan the economy is crucial in fighting usa and other allies.
There are 2 big pools for japan, 1st is china, 2nd are the big islands.
-
The thing is if u loose china, u loose kwangtung, and burma is sealed. So its harder to take Indochina against the Brits, but still not impassable though
-
No, it’s not a light decision. Preferable for Japan is to control China. But if it can’t be done it’s not the end of the world.
If Japan has to choose between China and atleast two of Hawaii, Calcutta and Sydney, I’d choose the latter without a blink.
I’d say the DEI are top priority in the early game and then China. They are parallell entities though.
-
Yeah the problem with more games at the same time its not just loosing focus, u almost had no tactical mistakes and oversights against me, but probable mixture of various games in ur had.

Dei are the big four islands?

Its hard to take India, on sea only, but it can be done. There are ways, but with heavy, casualties
-
Yes, it’s the money islands.

Sydney is a hard sheel. Its weird but Honolulu can most easily be taken and held for a rd
